Intelligence, Race and Genetics – Interesting Book

IMAGE FROM LIFE MAGAZINE

Arthur Jensen is a controversial figure since 1969, when he took part in a magazine interview with HER magazine and was soon after the focus of extreme controversy. He has received death threats, been accused of being a racist and vilified by many. Yet he has also been lionised by an almost equal number, many of them scientists. So what is the truth about this man, his work, and the science behind it? He was probably the first to look at difference in intelligence based on genetics, heredity and thus race, as well as environmental factors.

Would you rather be Rich and Famous or Feel Good about yourself?

[This is a long post (a 20 minute read) but on the up side it’s kind of gossipy and takes personal shots at some writers of famous books. And I told them about it too. **]


Ideally you’d want to be able to pick any two (I don’t care for fame really), but most of the time it really does seem as if we have to chose between integrity and monetary wealth. I once worked in the American Air Force base at Aviano in Italy, for a German company who was stuffed to the gills with the most incompetent managers I have ever had the misfortune of knowing.

How to See Auras – A Non-Hippie Guide

As I generally react to most New-Ageism nonsense by the expedient method of inquiring whether the presupposed nonsense in question will stop a strong night-stick from cracking the head of the long-haired unwashed hippie in question, this post may seem rather out of character. Not so dear reader! It is hippies in general, and the unscientific method, that I object to, not the strangeness of the Universe we live in. So in this short essay, I will teach you a simple way to see your own aura, and possibly that of others if you practice a little.

It might not be X-Ray vision, but it may still get you to see visions such as the one above if you use your powers for good. Just remember the adage of that most ancient wise wizard that is Stan Lee. “With Great Power comes Great Responsibility!”. So make sure she comes Powerfully. And Responsibly of course.

A Martian Wedding

Some of you may know of my old blog A Martian in London, which amongst other things, chronicled my search for a suitable female Number One to help me find my spaceship, all-female crew, and eventual rightful claim to the Galaxy.

My research involved more than a few Earth Females and for the benefit of all mankind I summed it up in a couple of politically incorrect but accurate charts (click on the image for a larger, more legible version):

Laying of Hands: A True Story of Miracle Healing Personally Experienced

Those of you that grew up in the 80s, when cell phones didn’t exist, and computers where machines used by NASA, may also have had the misfortune of attending a high-school that had a terribly high male to female ratio.

In these cases, you are no doubt familiar with Dungeons & Dragons.

For the rest of you, suffice it to say that in that realm, every adventuring party that wanted to have any chance of survival, tried to incorporate at least one Cleric. They had the power to heal wounds by magic you see.

This story however is not make believe, or part of some role-playing fantasy game. It is a true story, set in the same reality you and I share.

It happened years ago, when I was only 17 years old.

B.E.M.E.R. Technology to Heal like Wolverine

As you will know if you read this blog, I underwent surgery for a complete rupture of the Achilles Tendon in my right leg on the 24th of June 2010. Yesterday, not quite 9 weeks later, Redhead Girl invited me to go for an early dinner at a local restaurant that overlooks the Thames. We walked to the restaurant and back, a distance of about four kilometres along the river. I did so unaided by crutches.

According to the doctors on staff at St. Thomas Hospital, which I saw last Tuesday, I should still be using the air-boot cast for another 3 weeks, never mind walking around unaided. So how did I do it? Do I have a mutant healing factor?

Sex, Lies and Relationships

One of the most important activities we spend much of our lives doing, worrying about, trying to get into or out of is our intimate relationships.

Click to Enlarge

Understanding an overall framework of what relationships are is sadly something that  most of us never even consider. We almost never actually ask ourselves the simple question of what a relationship is for to any degree of depth. We are never taught how to do it and most of us never figure it out. As a result we generally suffer far more heart-ache than necessary  in our lives and for many, perhaps sadly even most people, the idyllic situation of a “perfect” relationship or at least deep inner peace with respect to the management of our (multiple?) intimate relationships never truly occurs. This post is an extremely brief introduction to the overall concept of what relationships are, and figuring out how to get into exactly the types you want to be in. Read more »

Welcome oh technologically assaulted visitor. Take a seat. Relax

Tired of the frenetic pace of modern life sometimes? Well then you have come to the right place. Here you will find amusing anecdotes, interesting articles, case studies of experimental hypnosis never before seen by living eyes and along with all that, I sincerely hope, some respite from the daily grind. So relax, take your time and enjoy exploring.

In fact dear reader, regardless of your current occupation (or lack thereof, as the case may be) I would say that unless you are  pleasantly engaged in doing mainly what you enjoy in life, then you are not really free. Isn’t that what we all want? To be truly free. Free to lay about, get a good cognac in the afternoon and settle in a comfortable seat to peruse the contents of this fine site. Or practice your cloud-bursting skills while observing the clarity of blue in the temperate sky of some Mediterranean beach. Or…
